I believe the problem of super-long TOC entries is solved.  We can
thank Tadziu for that.  Who'd'a thunk you needed to stick leaders in
a diversion in order to tack them onto filled copy?

There is a lot of checking that has to be done with TOCs--they're
tricky beasts--but the changes should be in the repo and on mom's
web page within the next couple of days.  I've a few other issues
to take care of beforehand.
